I'm so excited about the new web design and in particular the new capabilities enabled by the new CLG website! As the CLG's founder, I can say that I am truly proud of Lori's hard work, her tireless dedication and her taking the CLG to yet again, a new, higher level.

HELLO everybody, cant say how happy i am to be posting here on such an informative site. I wish everybody the best who is responsible for this achievment.

I know this is off post, but i will say free speach is our right but our right is to be civil, lets not have any hate speach or any of the problems other sites have had. this site is to important to have it ripped appart by jerks.

now to get back on post-------If we had so many problems with our own detainees we kidnaped from around the world with all the torture, we can just imagine what their captives are going through.

It is not for us to judge for either side to extreme, but to hope that their is a god who will set things straight, reward those who deserve and punish those deserving.

dont worry i will post strong feelings at a later date for great debates---rj
